At least thank you for admitting there is a problem here:) So would it make sense to think first about cross-env monitor standard (probably, at this point the discussion should go to xdg freedesktop org or something) - and then tighten the ropes on Notification Area abusers? Otherwise you just leave NO choice to the application which want to show their statuses on different platforms - and dont want to be blaimed by as GNOME-"incoherent". -- Sergey
